On What Writing Means to Me

Hey guys!

So question, What does writing mean to you?

Answer me with a message in the form to the right, but I'll go ahead and give my two cents on it.

Writing to me is a beautiful thing. It's something non writers don't get because we go hide for hours or days at a time and then have a few pages to show for it. So how can something with such little output be so beautiful?

Well the words are what make it beautiful. They form the sentences, paragraphs, pages, and chapters that weave a story together. Sure, the story forms slowly, but words can flow like water when you get on a roll.

The other part of the beauty is the freedom. writing gives you every freedom in and out of the world. In the real world, you set your own hours, though usually you do have set deadlines. On the page, there's nothing you can't do. Something not making physical sense? You can justify it without a problem. Just add a few sentences and bam, you've got something that's logical in your fictional world.

For me, writing is one of the most special things that we as people can do. It's a way to communicate with a chance to correct what you want to say. It's the opportunity to go exploring without ever leaving your desk. It's the best way to let go of the real world and escape for awhile.

That's what writing means to me.
